The Power Of Fear

Fear is the instinct to survive. Animals sense danger and run from it, or turn to face it if so required, we, I suggest, wallow in the perpetuation of it.

From an early age we learn that somethings are dangerous, we know this through experience or through the advice of others. As we mature, however, we lose this ability to rationalize and we make the same mistakes as have gone before.

Constantly we are told; ’Get a good education other wise you will never get a good job.’ We install fear early on.

Hide yourself away in conformity, never raise an opinion in case that is frowned upon and you are perceived to be different. That can make you anxious or worse, alienated.

Don’t compete, as failure may bring ridicule, and that will distress and harm you.

We read History and see how fear of the unknown brought conflict and wars. We see how the inability to understand or even listen to another viewpoint, frightened us into killing those who were not the same as us. Greed was another excuse. The fear that some one else had more of what you wanted, was sufficent enough for some.

Do we learn for this, or do we still oppose those who think differently? The world in which we all live, is a shared place not exclusively one idealism or another, no side is right and the other is wrong.

Fear is what keeps us apart. In a darkened room you need a light to be switched on to erase the fear of the voice in the other corner.Hasn’t that light been switched on you may ask, are not people the world over beginning to question authority and raising their voices against tyranny and dictators, is Fear not at an end?

Look around you, fear of terrorism is not the only tool in the bag, fear of uncertainty is equally as powerful.

“Look at the market index’s, they are our Holy grail. Look at the job market, the price of this, the price of that, the world is in decline. What can we do?” We ask all the time, as the poor starve and go without the basics that we take as granted.

This world is a rich abundant place, full of fertile minds and impassioned souls, not only full of resources that will better used in being ours.

If we all learnt to share more, fear could be eradicated and not just something to hide from.

About Daniel Kemp

At the age of seventy-six, Daniel Kemp has started his second year of studying the science of Psychology at the Open University. He is a member of The Society of Authors and also a bestselling writer. However, in early September 2025, he was diagnosed with cancer. He is now in palliative care at home, being looked after by his ex-wife. When he was writing his novels, he enjoyed writing stories that appealed to those who liked challenging themselves to solve mysteries that were set out before their eyes, but they couldn't. His introduction to the world of espionage and mystery happened at an early age when his father was employed by the War Office in Whitehall, London, at the end of WWII. However, it wasn’t until after his father died that he showed any interest in anything other than himself! On leaving academia he took on many roles in his working life: a London police officer, mini-cab business owner, pub tenant and licensed London taxi driver, but never did he plan to become a writer. Nevertheless, after a road traffic incident left him suffering from PTSD and effectively—out of paid work for four years, he wrote and self-published his first novel —The Desolate Garden. Within three months of publication, that book was under a paid option to become a $30 million film. The option lasted for six years until distribution became an insurmountable problem for the production company. All ten of his novels are now published by Next Chapter Publishing Company which has added an edition titled The Heirs And Descendants Collection, which holds all four books of that series, alongside an edition titled The Lies And Consequences Collection which contains all four volumes of that series. He is the recipient of rave reviews from a prestigious Manhattan publication and described as—the new Graham Green—by a highly placed executive of Waterstones Books, for whom he did a countrywide tour of book signing events. He has also appeared on 'live' television in the UK publicising his first novel. Less
